A2: See also أَرْجَابٌ.

رُجْبَةٌ A thing by means of which a tree is propped up, because of the abundance of its fruit, lest its branches should break: sometimes it is a wall built for it to rest upon, because of its weakness: (S:) a wall, or the like, built round a palm-tree, for it to rest upon, because of its heaviness or its weakness: (Mgh in art. عرو and عرى:) a kind of wide bench of stone or brick (دُكَّانٌ) built at the foot of a palm-tree, for it to rest upon, (K, TA,) because of its leaning, and being valuable to its owner, and being weak: (TA:) accord. to As, a structure of rock with which a palm-tree is supported by means of forked pieces of wood: (TA:) it is also called رُجْمَةٌ: (K * and TA in art. رجم:) pl. رُجَبٌ.

(AA, TA.) رَاجِبَةٌ sing. of رَوَاجِبُ; (S, K;) or, accord. to Kr, the sing. of this latter is ↓ رُجْبَةٌ [also mentioned as a sing. in the K]; but the correctness of this is doubted: (TA:) the رواجب are The finger-joints that are next to the ends of the fingers: (S, K:) next to these are the بَرَاجِم: then, the أَشَاجِع, which are next to the كَفّ: (S:) or the joints of the lowest parts (أُصُول) of the fingers: (K: [by which is meant the same as by the former explanation, accord. to the TA; though this seems to be more than doubtful:]) or the inner sides of those joints: or the bones of the fingers: (K:) or the finger-joints: (A, K:) or the backs of the سُلَامَيَات [generally meaning the phalanges of the fingers]: or the parts of the سُلَامَيَات between the بَرَاجِم; (K;) which last word [commonly signifies the knuckles, and] is explained by IAar as signifying the wrinkled parts at the joints of the fingers; whereof each finger has three, except the thumb: or the رواجب are the parts, of the inner sides, between the finger-joints: or [the knuckles next the metacarpal bones; i. e.] the parts that protuberate at the roots of the fingers when the hand is clinched.
